There is nothing better than this cd player, it has the best anti-skip, the best looks, the best clarity, the best bass boost, and best of all it's a best buy

I bought this CD player for my wife to use during our jogging treks outdoors. I bought it based on positive reviews and the price - this was a mistake. To begin, the sound is definately not the best - without the bass boost, the sound is similar to the original AM radio my father had in his 1965 GMC pickup, with the bass boost, the sound is sub-par at best. Now the real problem - the anti skip feature simply does not work. When she accelerated to a very light jog, the system started skipping - even if she cradled the player like a bird egg, the thing still skipped. Bottom line: don't buy this one - spend the extra money and buy something with a solid reputation - I've has great luck with my AIWA player for more than a year now - it didn't cost that much more and it has never skipped during a jog.
